Hi! My name is Beatriz! I created this blog because I absolutely LOVE FOOD!!!... I live and breath it and when I'm not cooking or eating. I am thinking or dreaming of what to eat or cook. Well I am not a chef or a certified one at the most but I consider myself one great COOK! I grew up in a world of food, where I ate homemade meals everday. My mother was as passionate or even more about food than I. She was a phenominal cook! You name it and she could cook it... Needless to say, I was making omelets at age 8 and baking cakes too. So now I am here to share my insight and passion of food that revolves around me when I am at home cooking, catering, or eating out. I hope your pallet is ready to enjoy this new journey with me.

Potato Zucchini Tartlets

How i came about making these wonderful bite size tartlets...I didn't have time to go the grocery store and fiddled with a few items in my fridge. I grabbed zucchini, cream cheese, yesterdays left over mashed potatoes, heavy cream, and green onions. This recipe is easy and simple for a last minute appitizers for friends and family.

Serving 24 mini Tartlets
2 Philsbury seamles dough
1/2 zucchini, diced
1/2 Cream cheese
1/3 Cheddar Cheese, shredded
1/3 cup green onions
4 tbl spn Mashed potato
1 egg

Preheat oven at 375. Soften the cream cheese with a fork in a medium bowl. Beat one egg, heavy cream and pour in cream cheese. Add the diced zucchini and green onions into the mixture. fold in the mashed potatoes with shredded cheddar cheese. add salt and pepper to your taste. However my mashed potatoes had plenty of saltiness.  Open the seamless dough and place on board (no need for flour) cut in 12 pieces. Place each piece on to a mini cupcake. Spoon mixture in to the cupcake wholes and sprinkle extra cheddar cheese on top. Bake for 15-20min until golden brown. Enjoy!
